| Biochem/physiol Actions: | IL-6 (Interleukin-6) is a proinflammatory cytokine that plays an important role in the maturation of B cells into antibody producing cells. It is also expressed by resting T-cells and induces IL-2 receptor and IL-2 production n mitogen-stimulated T cells and thymocytes. IL-6 functions in the activation and proliferation of T-cells. It participates in hematopoiesis by activating hematopoietic stem cells at the G0 stage to enter into the G1 phase. Increased levels of IL-6 and C-reactive protein have been observed in type-2 diabetes mellitus. |

| General description: | Human IL-6 (Interleukin-6) gene maps to chromosome 7p15. It is found to be mainly expressed in lymphoid and non-lymphoid cells, such as T-cells, B-cells, monocytes, fibroblasts, keratinocytes, endothelial cells and mesangium cells. It encodes a 184 amino acid protein that contains two potential N-glycosylation sites and four cysteine residues. This gene encodes a cytokine that functions in inflammation and the maturation of B cells. The protein is primarily produced at sites of acute and chronic inflammation, where it is secreted into the serum and induces a transcriptional inflammatory response through interleukin 6 receptor, alpha. The functioning of this gene is implicated in a wide variety of inflammation-associated disease states, including suspectibility to diabetes mellitus and systemic juvenile rheumatoid arthritis.
